• Implement Winston or Bunyan logging
• Add error response format
• Integrate logging with API endpoints
• Set up log aggregation and monitoring

Notes

This issue addresses the need for robust error handling and logging to improve application stability. The implementation will include centralized error handling middleware, structured logging, and integration with monitoring systems to track application health and debug issues effectively.
